Take a look at the amount of Spam I have in my inbox at the moment. That’s right, I have ’leet spam messages.

Thanks to Andy at TouchSA, I’ve come across a couple of rather cool, funny things on the interblags. They are all related, but I’ll go through all of them. They all relate to that funniest of television chefs: the Swedish Chef from the Muppet Show.

• The first is the Firefox extension that translates the web content into Bork Bork Bork.
• Secondly, Google has Bork, bork, bork as one of it’s languages, so you can have it in that language whenever you search. Note that this is for the Google pages only, not the search results themselves.
• Finally, I found a tool that converts any entered text into Bork Bork Bork. (Swedish Chef!)

Dr Karl from ABC radio is a funny, clever man. One of his recent podcasts/radio segments was called “Pluck for Luck,” and discussed four-leaf clovers. The funny thing he said almost slipped past my attention the first time around:

Stressors can come in a variety of forms. Drought, rain, aphids, Leprechauns, …

I had to listen to it again, just to see if I’d heard it right!

I’ll continue my service of linking to the best of xkcd’s comics: (This comic can be found at http://xkcd.com/c166.html) (Updated: Missing title.)

The AFL Grand Final was on this weekend, and no Victorian teams were in it (or even got close). This is particularly galling for the Vics, as the AFL used to be the VFL, and until very recently, the Victorian teams were still the powerhouses. Oh well. It’s all fun and games, isn’t it…
